SHEFFIELD.
Work Begun ON Four New Furnaces
! Steamboats,. Etc.

Special TO the Advertiser.
SHEFFIELD, March 10y Yesterday
marked another important and signiti-
cent era in the history Of Sheffield. Work
was begun on the four fine furnaces that
have been contracted for for some time.
The ettectuality and beyond the 'shade
OF the shadow OF a dream" of doubt
evidences and practically demonstrates
the fact that Shetiield's large enterprises
are not mere fracical shows and hum
bugs. Col. DOud the superintenden Of
the construction of the new furnaces, fur-
nlshes the information that the furnace
branch railroads will at al early date be
completed. He furthermore proposes for
the accommodation OF the furnace force
to dot the plains and hill>tops with
wi b white tents and upon the compile
tion OF the NJ. < e., which he expects to
use for the transportation Of the neces-
sary building material to build seventy
new cottages together with his own resi-
dence.
We have quit the feverish and ener>
waiting real estate boom business, and
although real estate remains firm and
steady-have swung into the lines of
progress and are in the midst OF unusual
material advance and improvement. Al.
most every day the air is shaken bv the
thunder OF the steamboats, whistle, and
we last week had pleasant visit from
steamer which has been christened un>
der the suggestive name Of City OF Shef
field"
The regular meeting of the Real Estate |
Agents association occurred last night |
This honorable and enterprising body is
considering the plausibitity OF several
very important measures, which upon
their definite approval and adoption will
De duly made known to the public.
Surveyors were busy at work yester-
lay surveying the route for the Louis
lille x Nashville railroad branch from St.

The Capture Of Dick chiIdress.

Mr.. w. T. Bennett, We are reliably in.
formed, was the man who captured Dick
Childress and brought him to the rail-
way station'at Gurley, and then to the
county Jail at this city.
Mr.. Bennett has certainly rendered the
community great and good service by
his cool courage and manly daring We
are not c rtain, but it strikes us that the
Governor OF the State offered reward
for the capture Of Childress, and il this
be so. Mr.. Bennett, is certainly entitled
to it.
